Abstract
In the early days of building social work, the focus was on the client and the client’s needs, with the social worker helping them deal with difficult situations in life. As the discipline has gradually established itself, more attention is also paid to the worker. This change of perspective is accompanied by questions such as: “Who is mindful of the needs and well-being of the social worker?" and “How can the social worker deal with the demands of their profession?” This shift in perception reflects the fact that the social worker is now seen as a human being and a key instrument of assistance; like their clients, the worker also pursues goals (whether personal, professional or social), has needs, perceives and experiences situations uniquely and lives in a social context that affects them and influences their actions. Social work is a very challenging profession with high demands on the resilience of the workers. The perspective of resilience represents developmental processes, thanks to which the workers are able to cope with the difficulties of their profession and achieve the desired level of well-being, even though they may have experienced a difficult situation in connection with their performance. This conference paper answers the question: “How to strengthen the resilience of social workers?” It will include a presentation of researches on the resilience of social workers in the Czech Republic. Finally, the research implications for the practice of social workers are presented.
